Smith described the early morning events of Jan. 25, 2014, when he received a call from another Kelowna RCMP officer that the body of a man had been found and they would be working on what appeared to be a homicide.

Crown David Grabavac asked Smith to review several exhibits. After reviewing the exhibits, Smith described them to the courtroom as a series of photographs — of Highway 33 near the scene, and of a tent and tarp, white dots of snow and a forensic identification placard from within the scene.

Grabavac then showed an forensic identification continuation document with a list of exhibits catalogued from the scene.

Pirko’s defence lawyer Jordan Watt took issue with the introduction of the continuation document to the trial and the jurors left the room for voir dire discussion about its admissibility.
